(feat. Ronnie Bowman)
D
I just spent my last ten dollars
G
On a ride out of this holler
Bm A G
And way of life I’ll never understand
All the dust is never ending
All the while your back is bending
To the point of breaking down to work this land
Raised a poor dirt farmers son
Left with no place to run
Out of here for this old guitar an me
I got my songs down in my soul
And the finally took control
To the point that I had to set them free
A D
She’ll play you one more melody
G D
I’ll sing you one last song
G walk down to Em A
Then will pack it up and move along
D
In another town will be
G walk down to Em
Cause she sound so good you see
G A D
We go hand and hand this old guitar and me
Though I never took a wife
These six strings have been my life
When I need her most she’s always there you see
I can tell when she feels blue
Cause I can always feel it too
But we work it out together her and me
Chorus
Instrumental break chorus
When my time down here is gone
And I have played the last old song
There’s just one thing I hope you’ll do for me
Pick her up from time to time
And play gentle on my mind
By my grave beneath the weeping willow tree
Chorus
